It's irrelevant, imho. There is no justifiable reason for sabotaging your own team. None.

We had an opposing center do it in an HNA playoff game in Warminster. Dude tried to rap the puck around the boards with their goalie pulled as I pressured him. He flubbed it off the heel of the stick & put it right in the empty net. We felt a little bad for him, were he not a pest on the ice we may have sympathized more.

Bet there was a locker room fight after that game.

I can't imagine any of his teammates sympathized with him any longer after putting on a stunt like that one.

Now I have to tell the story of the greatest goal in history. I was playing dek hockey in Northeast Philly, right by the Franklin Mills mall. Me & #23 were playing on the same line-not sure the total situation, but I ended up playing center, which was rare.

Anyhow, Our goalie allowed a soft goal. As we were headed back to the dot, the other center says to me, "Man, that is the worst goal I have ever seen". We pretty much agreed with him.

So at the faceoff, I tied up his stick and kicked the ball over to #23. He goes to drive the ball in and kind of flubs it. It was a slow roller headed to the net. The goalie dropped to one knee to play the ball and it short hopped him, and went over his leg and in.

The other center looks at me and deadpans, "Well, I stand corrected". I have never laughed so hard during a hockey game. We later dubbed it the Neutral Zone Crap.

About a month ago we were playing one of the top teams in our league... back and forth close game and they had the lead 4-3 with about 30 seconds left.. We had pulled the goalie with me coming out as the 6th man... my d-man lazily swings the puck over towards me.. There was a guy rushing the puck so I had no choice but to send it in from just on my side of the blue line (blue line icing). Instead of letting it go for an icing, bringing it back down for the faceoff and forcing our goalie back into the net, their goalie goes and plays it, fires it right into our forward who pots with 12 seconds left to tie it. We ended winning 1 minute into OT.

That's bad, but Broduer flubbed it...this one, the goalie just got frozen. And #23 couldn't break glass with his shot

I'd own the patent for mud-brick baking if there were such a thing back then.

you remember that, eh? i can still see the overhead/behind the net camera angle in my head.

of course you've searched for it. it's probably next to the "hhhhhhharm" video we'll NEVER find.

That's a bad break.

I seem to remember Parent giving up a long goal because he was sweeping his crease and didn't see the puck coming his way. Can't find it on YT though.

similar to the Nitty goal against the Pens early in the 05-06 season when he was caught looking at the scoreboard. IIRC, it tied the game at 5-5. Rathje scored the OT winner. Rathje.
